Chapter 116 Box Office, Celebration Banquet

Zeng Li's "The Barber" was scheduled to be released at the end of April, also thinking of taking advantage of the Golden Week schedule.

With two movies at the same time, both of which were starring roles, Zeng Li received a lot of coverage.

When the media interviewed her classmates, everyone praised her, including her appearance, personality and the good memories of the past campus.

"The Hidden" lived up to expectations. In the last week, it slowly reached a global box office of 100 million. Lionsgate's press releases were sent all over Hollywood.

"Director Lin, it's going to be released. Are you excited? Your "The Hidden" has achieved remarkable results around the world."

On the last day of April, many people called to congratulate Lin Nan.

"It's okay. I hope it will continue, haha."

Lin Nan suppressed his inner feelings. He didn't dare to guarantee what fruits "Time and Space Cruise" would bear. No one said that this script was bad in his previous life, but the box office was still a little bit off.

On May Day, Lin Nan got up early. I believe that the theater chain was preparing last night. Theaters will be very busy during this period.

After cleaning up and washing up, Lin Nan prepared to go to the cinema, but he was still a little uneasy.

The festive atmosphere was very strong, which could be seen from the traffic jam.

The cinema was already crowded outside. Lin Nan put on a hat, adjusted his plain glasses, and walked in.

The most popular "The Da Vinci Code" will have to wait until the second half of the month, and the same goes for "Lu Xiaofeng". The rest are all dramas.

On the contrary, there are still some viewers for several movies in April, and Zeng Li's "The Barber" is barely ranked at the top.

The crowd is mainly on the side of "Time and Space Cruise". It can be said that among the movies shown, "Time and Space Cruise" attracted 70% of the audience.

The scheduling of the films given by China Film is too amazing.

Lin Nan contributed a share of the box office for himself, and the theater was almost full.

As the plot of the movie unfolded, Lin Nan heard the sudden discussion around him.

"Is this science fiction?"

"Did the heroine die in the car accident? Why did the child disappear?"

"The driver is the director of "Stone"!"

...

The difference between the time of the watch and the clock was highlighted during the editing. When the audience found out, they started to discuss the plot setting, which was very effective.

When a heroine returned home and saw another self, the plot entered a climax. The audience in the theater suddenly had a lot of ideas, which one is the real heroine?

They all thought they were the real one, because they were real in different time and space, and only the one in this time and space realized this...

Lin Nan left the theater. He found that the audience's response was not bad after the end. Many people even wanted to watch it again because some clues were not sorted out, but they understood 70% to 80%, which was very exciting.

May Day is a big period, and the media will inevitably report in various theaters.

Penguin News is flashing, and many acquaintances said that they would go to contribute ticket money to Lin Nan.

Wang Luodan even said that several people from their "Struggle" crew went to watch the movie in a group and let it be reimbursed.

That night, Han Sanping invited Lin Nan to a dinner party. According to the information fed back by the theaters under China Film, the attendance rate was unique, after all, there were no competitors in the same period.

"Come on, eat and drink with peace of mind. The first-day box office will be released in a few hours."

Han Sanping raised his wine glass and smiled.

The publicity was done by Shanghai Film Group, and a senior executive of Shanghai Film Group was also at the dinner table.

"Congratulations to Director Lin, I wish this film will break the first-day box office record again."

The news in the media has been published.

"Time Cruise" is unique and enjoys the Golden Week schedule!"

"With a high attendance rate, Lin Nan's new film is expected to create its own record."

"The scheduling is a bit unfair, Time Cruise has no competitors of the same level..."

At present, the first-day box office record of domestic films is in the hands of The Promise. Although Lin Nan has some expectations, his expectations are not high.

That night, he slept in the hotel and drank a little. However, Lin Nan vaguely remembered that someone knocked on the door in the middle of the night for no reason. Fortunately, he locked it.

The first-day box office of 18.5 million exceeded that of "Stone", but it still did not reach the level of "The Promise". After all, Lao Chen was betting on decades of reputation.

This data was issued by China Film Group. They are in charge of the national distribution business and are always the first-hand data.

"Lin Zi, you are on fire again, check the news." Ning Hao's phone call came in at the right time.

The online evaluation of "Time Cruise" is very subtle. Most viewers think that the brain hole is open, the plot is endless, exciting and interesting.

And film critics can always find faults.

"Science fiction is science fiction, horror movies are horror movies, mixed and mixed, inappropriate..."

"It seems to leave room for the audience's imagination, but in fact it is pretending to be deep..."

If these people don't sing the opposite tune, it seems that they can't show their professional characteristics. Lin Nan really wants to say that if you have the ability, you can do it.

"Which do you think is more eye-catching, finding faults or praising?" Lin Nan said.

Many people in the circle congratulated Lin Nan when they were interviewed, and everyone carried the sedan chair.

On the second day, the box office did not increase significantly, but it remained at 15 million. The media boldly predicted that the 200 million that Lin Nan had expected might really have a chance to be realized.

The news from abroad was not optimistic. There were many Hollywood blockbusters in April and May. They suffered a loss in domestic scheduling, but they were popular all over the world.

Lin Nan, a novice at sea, was hit on the shore by a big wave.

"Forget it, I'll take it slow in the future. Who dares to say that he can catch a big fish on his first trip to the sea, haha."

Lin Nan could only comfort himself in this way.

On the third and fourth days, until the end of the first week, "Time Cruise" successfully broke through 100 million.

China Film told Lin Nan that pirated discs had appeared.

As Lin Nan became famous, his movies were inevitably targeted, which was the treatment of big directors and famous directors.

Fortunately, the daily box office was still above 10 million. It was not until the 11th that the Hollywood movie "First Alert" was released, which caused the daily box office of "Time Cruise" to decrease significantly.

"200 million should be no problem?"

"By the end of this month, it should not be a big problem." Lin Nan predicted.

Because of "First Alert", the daily box office dropped below 10 million, 8 or 9 million, and the situation of killing all in the first ten days was completely gone.

Just two days after the third week, "The Da Vinci Code", which was released simultaneously around the world, once again snatched a part of the audience, and the daily box office of "Time Cruise" reached 5 or 6 million.

Lin Nan knew that this was a normal phenomenon, but it did not affect his established goals.

The time was frozen on the 25th. China Film and Shanghai Film issued a notice to celebrate the domestic box office of "Time and Space Cruise" reaching 200 million, and Lin Nan entered the list of directors in the 200 million box office club.

At this time, the daily box office was less than 2 million, and it would be released at the end of the month.

Beijing Film Academy sent a short message, "Celebrating the outstanding student of our school's directing department, Lin Nan, the new film "Time and Space Cruise" has exceeded 200 million box office!"

The first Zhang Yimou was from Beijing Film Academy, and the second Lin Nan was still from Beijing Film Academy.

"It's a pity that the leading actor is from the Central Academy of Drama." A leader said regretfully.

Zeng Li has finally become popular. "The Barber" fell under the feet of "Time and Space Cruise", but it didn't affect her.

Among her classmates, she finally has her own representative work, and it's still a high-grossing female lead.

"Hong Kong Island, the current closing is 22 million, and it's no longer moving."

Hearing this data, Lin Nan also understood that there are only a few people there, and this number is already very good.

However, the data outside is really unsatisfactory. The total amount is only 12 million US dollars. It is profitable, but it is not ideal.

If this idea is known to the outside world, Lin Nan will definitely be called shameless.

The movie has not been released yet, and Shanghai Film and China Film have already arranged a celebration banquet.

So far, the two companies have not lost money in cooperation with Lin Nan, and they have all made money, especially this time the box office has exceeded 200 million, which is a milestone.

Capital Hotel, this time there is no Lu Chuan who is an eyesore.

China Film and Shanghai Film Organization, Lin Nan and the crew members have all arrived, and all the well-known film and television companies, actors and artists, directors and producers have not been left out.

Huayi Xiao Wang led two ice soldiers, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong and others were also there, and this time there were more industry insiders who specialize in TV dramas.

"It seems that many TV drama production companies are here?"

Ning Hao asked.

"The company has started to do this, and we will deal with them in the future. Taking this opportunity, I invited some." Lin Nan said.

Tangren, Zhou Yi and other new faces were indeed not seen at the previous movie celebration banquet.

Shu Chang was chatting with Zhang Jizhong and Huang Xiaoming, and came over after a while.

"Has Xixi not come back yet?"

"Her Japanese album and EP are almost ready, and she will be back in two days. There is also a movie to be released next month."

Lin Nan said.

Huang Xiaoming followed, "Director Lin, congratulations, you are the only two directors in the 200 million club in China. Shu Chang and I know each other, and we will take care of each other in the crew."

"Thank you."

Lin Nan looked in the direction of Huayi, "This drama is produced by Huayi. Are you ready to sign Huayi after the contract is terminated?"

Shu Chang pretended not to hear these words and walked to the side.

Huang Xiaoming smiled and nodded, "I have this plan, and I am negotiating. Huayi can provide me with more and better resources. Of course, it would be an honor if Director Lin takes care of me in the future, haha."

"You really think about it, if there is a chance." Lin Nan raised the cup in his hand.

There were many reporters and media at the celebration banquet. Han Sanping wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of his bad luck. The 25% investment share of China Film was entirely his credit.

"You are about to graduate. What are your plans for the next movie?"

Director Ren asked in a low voice, but many people around him pricked up their ears.

"I am still considering it. I have to wait until "Journey to the Center of the Earth" is released next month. My company is also investing in TV series."

Lin Nan replied.

"Haha, let's talk about it after this movie. It's better to strike while the iron is hot and prepare for the next one."

"Thank you Director Ren for your concern."

...

"Hello, Director Lin, I am Jiang Xingrou..."

There are not many female producers with names, and this is another one.

Lin Nan invited many companies and people in the TV industry this time, and everyone can guess the purpose.

Even if you are one of the best in the film industry, if you cross over, aren't you still a novice?

Tangren and Zhouyi can do so well in TV dramas because they have their own complete team, their own behind-the-scenes team, lighting, martial arts, director, screenwriter, and can complete everything independently from beginning to end.

"I look forward to working with Director Lin one day."

"Me too, if you need investment one day, Mr. Jiang can contact me."

Lin Nan said with a smile, the other party's production model is very likely to have problems with funds.

"Thank you."
